A soft and cool breeze played with everything inside a very wide field with a large tree at the center of the field. The field was being covered with different-colored flowers. One could easily feel relief once he is into this field that was popularly known as "Sanctuary Garden". A lot of people explore around here because of its simple beauty and spacious space. Below the tree lies a gravestone.

A certain blonde woman with baby blue eyes walked towards it and knelt down,gently placing a bouquet of flowers close to it,she seems to be very much calm and at the same time,emotionless. There was a glint of something in her eyes that cannot be explained. She has that soft smile as she stared down at the headstone. She began to speak,"Hey,it has been pretty much a long time huh?" She then sat beside the headstone and looked at the beautiful view in front of her,"Just as I seems very beautiful. How have you been?" But she received no answer and she knows that,she let out a deep sigh as she just stared at nowhere,"I'm pretty sure you have been doing well..I wonder what you have been up to." The blonde then looked at the gravestone,"Do you still remember?"

IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII

"Nozomi!" A certain raven-haired girl rushed towards the purple-haired girl who was arranging some boxes inside a shop. The purple-haired then turned her head to look at the other girl,"Ah Nicocchi! What is it?"

"Hey,Rin and the others are inviting us to watch movies this Saturday! You up?" Nico smiled and Nozomi shook her head to decline.

"I have duties on Saturday,maybe next time?" Nozomi replied at Nico who pouted.

"Daawwww fine. When are you free then?"

Nozomi hummed as she placed two fingers below her chin,"How about next Saturday?"

"Deal! You keep your word! So how's work going on?" Nico then looked around,seeing clothes hung around their shelves.

"It is going steady!~" The purple-haired giggled.

"You sure did your duties very well while your owner is away. Have you gotten enough time for yourself? Don't you have a girlfriend or something?" Nico raised an eyebrow and the purple-haired just blushed,"W-Well...I don't plan to chase on someone just yet. Instead,I let them chase me. Love will just unexpectedly come right?"

"Right.." Nico rolled her eyes as she walked around,exploring the whole shop,"You always put most of your time in here,why don't you go outside and find someone? I'm sure she is just around there or something."

"Like I said Nicocchi-"

"Okay okay,I get it,I was just joking." The raven-haired chuckled while raising her palms on her head level.

"Anyway,would you like a cup of tea?"

"No thanks." Nico grinned and then stared at something that was outside the shop,making Nozomi blink in curiosity.

"Hey look,there's your soulmate." Nico then gently pointed at a tall,blonde woman who was at a cafe right across the shop they were in,she seems to be with a red-haired woman and they were just drinking their coffee while chatting with each other.

"What? Where?" Nozomi then looked at the blonde and the red-haired woman before she began staring at the blonde eagerly.

"Whoa there gal,that's new coming from you,I mean,how did you feel whenever you see her?" Nico smirked teasingly.

"I felt so much alive.." Nozomi smiled softly,"I felt like I can do all of my work in a swift and get through the day without feeling much tired at all..she is like magic...my soulmate." She then looked at her palm and it looked like she could see a red string tied around her pinky finger and its thread then trailed up to the blonde's pinky one with its other end tied around it,"I could feel it...she is the one for me." The purple-haired sighed with her eyes closed,she has a smile on her face.

"Oh yeah? Can you also tell which one is my soulmate?" Nico whispered to her with a curious smirk.

"Of course. That one." Nozomi casually pointed at the red-haired woman and then Nico blushed lightly.

"R-Really?"

"Yep,I could see the red string between you and her." Nozomi replied before she turned to look at the blonde again,"I wonder what's her name...you know...that tall,blonde woman.."

"I heard that she is a woman with a male sex organ."

"I don't care,in fact,it is a great convenience for me. I will still get pregnant." Nozomi sighed dreamily,"I wonder when she will notice me.."

"Never unless you do something."

The purple-haired pouted at the raven-haired,"Nichocci-"

"Alright I get it,you want her to do the first move right? Well,let her see you for once."

"Well...maybe you are right..." Nozomi sighed,"I gotta get back to work." She said as she turned around and went back into arranging the hung clothes while Nico just watched her.

IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII

"So like I was saying,tomorrow will be the deadline of the report for the Ayase Constructions. I expect to see you first thing in the morning." The blonde told the red-haired woman who nodded before sipping her coffee.

"Roger that. You sure put alot of your time into your work rather than to something else, why don't you get a girlfriend?" The red-haired smiled and the blonde blinked.

"W-What? Just stop that,Maki."

"I know that you have been looking forward to have a good talk with that girl,Eli."

Eli sighed,"Fine..it's just that.."

"Just what?"

"W-Well...nothing.."

Maki smiled as she turned her head to the side,looking at something,"Hey,your wife."

Eli blinked and looked at the direction where the red-haired was looking,seeing Nozomi who was arranging clothes,she then let out a soft smile,"She is beautiful as always,just look at those things in her. Her hair,her eyes,everything...She is so simple.."

"I could tell." Maki looked back at the blonde,"Why don't you talk to her?"

"Well..." Eli rubbed her nape,"What if she got creeped out because I have...you know.."

"You don't have to tell her right away. Just approach her and say hi."

"Well...I feel nervous just thinking about it.."

"You don't have to,you are an Ayase,I thought Ayases are very damn tough and strong? Be a man."

"Be a woman or be a man?"

"Since you have that genital,then be a man." The red-haired smiled and the blonde just sighed.

"Or do you want me to help you?" The red-haired winked.

"W-What?"

"Just pretend that you are gonna buy a shirt or something,alright?" The red-haired stood up,"Let's go." She then walked out of the cafe with the blonde blinking.

Eli rolled her eyes and then stood up,following Maki.

IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII

After a while,the duo then entered the shop and looked around.

"Whoa,these clothes are pretty much simpler than I thought but they are elegant at the same time." Maki said in awe.

"I agree..just like her.." Eli whispered as she looked around also.

Nico was looking at her watch but when she looked up to see who came in,her eyes widened in shock as she quickly rushed to the purple-haired,"N-Nozomi,Nozomi." She whispered sharply.

The purple-haired looked at her friend,"What is it?"

"They are here."

"What?" Nozomi scanned her eyes around and saw Eli and Maki just checking the clothes out with curiosity before she blushed,"She-"

"Go! This is your chance!" Nico whispered again sharply as she lightly pushed the purple-haired at them.

"R-Right." Nozomi lightly gulped as she walked towards the two,"E-Excuse me,may I help you?"

Maki turned to look at the purple-haired with a smile,"Ah,just this friend of mine who was searching for a blue shirt made in cotton."

Eli looked down at Nozomi and her eyes slowly widens.

The same goes to the purple-haired but her eyes softened after a moment and then smiled,"Is that all?"

"A-Ahh..." The blonde stammered as she stared at the other.

'Oh god...' The blonde thought

'Her smile is the most beautiful...'
